This week"s Drag Race video features a new Chevrolet Camaro SS taking on a Mercedes Benz AMG C43 and an Audi S5. These two European performance cars have smaller engines and less power, but in the European market, these are two key competitors of the new Camaro. It should be noted that Auto Bild, a German publication, hosted this little drag race, so don"t be surprised when all of the details of the vehicles are listed in metric figures.The video begins by offering up some details on the new Camaro SS, the AMG and the S5 before showing the three cars line up on an airstrip. As soon as the race begins, all three cars appear to get away pretty evenly, but as they get down the track, the Camaro pulls away from the AMG and the AMG pulls away from the Audi.On the top end, the Camaro stopped the clock at 12.6 seconds while the Benz ran a 12.84 and the Audi ran a 12.94 showing German performance car shoppers that for a fraction of the price of the AMG and the Audi, the American muscle car still hands out beatings.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pdpIPE41Y0UTags: 2016 Camaro, 6th Gen Camaro, camaro, Camaro SS, drag race monday
